NICE Application Software Consortium-Workshop (SWCON-WS)

这个名为“创建应用软件联盟研讨会”的项目将为软件联盟奠定基础，通过应用高性能计算（HPC）作为关键推动者，增强美国工业竞争力。本次研讨会的愿景是，它将导致以美国政府、工业界和学术界为主要参与者的独特合作项目的发展。本次研讨会的智力价值在于建立和运营一个独特的软件联盟，这将导致开发下一代基于仿真的工程科学应用程序，一个开放的多规模和多物理基础设施/数据库，支持多供应商的互操作性，同时保留私营部门。S专有权益。这项活动的更广泛影响将是：1)大大提高计算模拟、建模和预测软件应用的能力，利用入门级系统到大规模HPC计算系统，以解决多尺度和多物理场行业挑战的全频谱，增强美国的竞争力和安全。2)成本降低、更快的上市时间、最大的市场渗透率（市场份额增加1% = 44亿美元的经济收益，数千个新工作岗位），可能带来数亿美元的收益。3)实现ISV和HPC计算市场的显著增长。

This project "Workshop on Creating an Application Software Consortium" will lay down the basis for a Software Consortium to enhance U.S. industrial competitiveness, through the application of High Performance Computing (HPC) as a key enabler. The vision of this workshop is that it will result in the development of a unique collaborative program with the U.S. government, industry, and academia as key players. The Intellectual Merit of this workshop rests in establishment and operation of a unique software consortium which would result in the development a next generation of simulation based engineering science applications, an open multi-scale and multi-physics infrastructure/database supporting multi-vendor interoperability, yet preserving the private sector?s proprietary interests. Broader Impact of this activity would be 1) to greatly increase the capability of computational simulation, modeling and predictive software applications, leveraging entry level systems to large scale HPC computing systems, to address the full spectrum of multi-scale and multi-physics industry challenges to enhance U.S. competitiveness and security. 2) Potentially hundreds of millions of dollars in benefits from cost reductions, faster time to market, maximum market penetration (1% increase market share = $4.4 billion economy wide gain, thousands of new jobs). 3) Enable significant ISV and HPC computing market growth.
